She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew) novel Chapter 190

Chapter 190
“Matthew is here?’ Athena thought. She was stunned for a few seconds before taking the roses happily, and saying, “Thanks”
Just as she
e was about to call Matthew, a group of classmates rushed over and surrounded her, remarking excitedly. “Athena, you played very well. Your goal is also remarkable. We’re so happy and touched. You’re our idol.
One of them suggested. “There won’t be any classes for the next few days. Shall we go for supper together? Our form teacher will join us too.”
Athena thought about it. It was not ten o’clock at night yet. It was good to have dinner with her classmates occasionally, so she smiled and agreed
And so, Athena was escorted away by her classmates.
On the other side of the backstage, Joy had just changed into casual clothes and walked out of the changing room when a young woman in a business suit gave her a large bouquet of blue roses with a hint of purple.
The woman said respectfully, “This is for you from Mr. Harper. He said your piano playing was very outstanding and memorable. He wants to treat you to supper near the school. He will send you back safely before midnight. Please come!
The bouquet was big, with at least a hundred roses. Furthermore, they were rare and precious blue roses and the wrapping was very luxurious. It instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Joy was stunned for a moment before she smiled, “Thank the person who sent the flowers to me, but I’m allergic to roses. I can’t accept them.” She covered her nose and took a few steps back.
The woman was still smiling. The CEO of our company drives a Lamborghini. He’s waiting for you in the parking lot on the east side. I can take you there.”
“A Lamborghini?” many people whispered with envy in their eyes.
Joy was unmoved. “It’s late. I have to go back and take care of my pets. Please tell your boss not to waste any effort on me.”
With that, she left.
Many people saw this and gossiped among themselves.
One of them was curious and asked, “I want to go to the parking lot and see if the Lamborghini and CEO are cool.”
Someone wanted to stir up trouble and deliberately mislead the public. “I heard the girl who handed the flowers to Athena say the sender was Mr. Graham. The CEO who gave flowers to Joy is also Mr. Graham. Are they the same man?”
Everyone was curious, remarking. That’s possible. They’re both equally beautiful, and they’re both straight-A students. If the CEO takes a fancy to one, why can’t he take a fancy to the other?”
Another pointed out, “He’s rich. Isn’t it normal for him to woo two goddesses at the same time?”
At this moment, the student in charge of recording the event suddenly exclaimed excitedly, “Oh my god! Come and take a look. I found a seriously handsome guy. He’s more handsome than all the school hunks combined. It’ll be your loss not to
come take a look
Everyone gathered around.
In the video, a guy sat at the end of the third row in front. When the lights on the stage swept over hint, his face was clearly outlined in that instant, stunning all the onlookers.

A girl exclaimed, “Hesreally handsome and classy. Even the top celebrities in the entertainment industry are inferior to him without makeup.”
A boy said, “I’m sure there’s no one that handsome in our school He is probably from outside, right?”
Someone shouted, “I know who he is. He’s the Graham Group’s heir, Matthew Graham. I didn’t expect him to attend our school’s Independence Day Gala.”
One of them seemed to have realized something. “He must be here to watch someone perform. I wonder who’s so lucky to be fancied by him.”
At this point, everyone looked at each other, asking. “Is it Athena or Joy? Both are equally compatible with him.”
Just like that, the rumor that Matthew might have taken a fancy to Athena, Joy, or even both slowly spread from that night.
Athena did not know about the rumors. She had supper with her classmates until almost midnight, then drove home alone..
It was already half past midnight when she reached the villa. To her surprise, Alaric was still awake, playing basketball by the garage alone.
Seeing her return. Alaric spun the ball with one hand and panted, “Athena, you’re back. I thought you were already asleep”
“I had supper with my classmates. It just ended.” Under the street lamp in the front yard, Athena saw that he was sweating profusely. Even his jersey was wet. She knew he had been playing for a long time, but she did not stop him
She only said, “Tm going to sleep. What about you? Are you going to bed too?”
Alaric looked at the phone beside him and exclaimed, “It’s already so late? I’m heading to bed. Good night”
Over the next few days, Athena noticed that every night around eleven o’clock, when most of the family were asleep, Alaric would go out alone with a basketball and play at the basketball court in the neighborhood until about one in the morning.
Every morning before dawn, Alaric would go for a morning run alone. After that, he would play basketball for a while too before washing up and making breakfast for the family.
Except for Athena, no one in the family knew Alaric had been forced to give up his dream of becoming a professional basketball player. Alaric’s behavior in front of the entire family was normal. It was as if nothing had happened.
On the fifth day of the holiday, Athena noticed that Alaric’s injuries were almost healed, so she asked, “You like to play tennis, right? Let’s play it tomorrow. I’ve already reserved the venue.”
“Tennis? Sure.” Alaric’s eyes immediately lit up. He said excitedly. “Athena, you know how to play tennis too?”
Athena smiled, “I only know a little. I’m not good at it, but I have arranged for the members of a tennis club to play with us”
“That’s great. Tennis is my favorite sport,” Alaric cheered. He was restless to play sports again. “But my tennis racket is too old. It’s not good. I have to buy a new one.”
“I’ve already prepared everything” Athena put her hands behind her back and smiled, “Tve made a bet with the opponents that you’ll beat them. You better rest up tonight and make me proud tomorrow.”
“Don’t worry!” Ataric patted his chest and said boldly, “Athena, since you invited me along, I’ll make sure to defeat all of them. Otherwise, I’d have let you down.”

The next morning, after the family finished breakfast, Athena drove to the tennis courts with Alaric and Josie
Alaric knew a little about the tennis courts and tennis clubs in Kilmore City. When he arrived, he said in surprise, “Endover Tennis Club? This is the best tennis club in West End. It’s famous throughout the country”
Alaric almost wanted to ask how much it would cost to play here but he remembered Athena was not short of money. He quickly changed the topic, “It’s the holidays now. Why are there so few people here?”
Athena smiled. “Many people have gone on vacation, so there are very few people, of course.”
She did not tell Alaric she had booked all the courts. She also did not inform Alaric that the players she had arranged for him to play against were all professional players from the club.
Without knowing what was happening, Alaric completed his warm-up in high spirits. He held the top-notch racket that Athena had prepared for him and shouted at his opponents. “Buddy, you can do it. I won’t go easy on you. Don’t lose too badly.”
The professional players were speechless. They wondered if Alaric would still be so confident if he knew they were professional players
However, since their sugar daddy had asked them to keep their identities a secret, they could only give this brat a harsh dose of reality.
